Case studies & selected work

Six products I led,
and everything else.

Start with the six flagship case studies below — a company-wide design system, an AI product used by California law enforcement, a mortgage CRM still shipping what I designed, two application experiences rebuilt around time-to-complete, and an industrial commerce platform. The rest of two decades follows, filterable by craft.

How I work

Research first. Pixels last.

01
Research, Requirements & IA

Requirements, research, and a solid information architecture before any pixels.

02
UX, UI & Wireframing

Wireframes lay out the interface with the best experience strategy in mind.

03
Visual Design

Look and feel layered on the wireframes — appealing UX that's desirable to use.

04
Prototyping & Front-end

Brought to life in responsive HTML5 & CSS3 — usable on any device.

I'm happy to share deeper case studies, prototypes, and the decisions behind each project.
